Elderly people with age spots on their hands, i.e. seborrheic keratosis, is a kind of benign epidermal proliferative tumor, which can be removed by drugs, liquid nitrogen freezing, laser treatment, electrocautery or surgery.
1. Drugs: If the age spots on the hands of the elderly are relatively thin, they can be treated with topical ointment, such as retinoic acid cream or imiquimod cream, and observe the effect.
2. Liquid Nitrogen Freezing: If the treatment effect is not significant by applying ointment, then liquid nitrogen freezing can be taken.
3. Laser treatment: You can also treat the age spots by removing them with laser.
4. Electrocautery: age spots can be removed by electrocautery, i.e. the heat generated by electricity can be used to cauterize the age spots.
5. Surgery: age spots on the hands of the elderly can be treated by surgical excision if necessary.
It is suggested that once the elderly find age spots on their hands, they should consult doctors in time to improve the relevant examination and standardize the treatment. The medication should be used under the guidance of doctors and should not be used blindly.
